Abstract

The article provides an overview of the current state of the genus Hofmaenneria Gerlach, Meyl 1957. The species of this genus are quite rare; they live in fresh and brackish water bodies and in moist soil. Currently, 11 valid species are known: H. brachystoma (Hofmanner in Hofmanner et Menzel 1914) Gerlach et Meyl 1957, H. elongata Gagarin 1987, H. gratiosa Alekseev 1983, H. hazanensis Mulvey 1969, H. keoladeoensis Khan, Hussain, Sultana et Tahseen 2005, H. longicaudata Gagarin 1999, H. longispiculata Gagarin, Naumova 2010, H. niddensis (Skwarra 1929), H. obesa Gagarin, Naumova 2010, H. optata Alekseev 1983, H. sitnikovae Gagarin, Naumova 2010. The morphological diagnosis of the genus is slightly changed. A table of the main morphological characters of the species of the genus Hofmaenneria, as well as dichotomous and pictorial keys, has been compiled.
